    Visit Acantha.

    Are they still available this year?

    I'd guess it a backwards step to remove the badges whilst keeping the banners in-game, so I imagine that they're probably still available, but would like to check since I missed these last year.
    As was mentioned, all the previous years' badges are available. They did a nice job with the overview page.

    Not really a bug, per se--that's just the way the costumes work: sort of a non-stealthy stealth power.

    Ran the tip mish again this morning (approx. 7 hrs after previous completion) and selected the same option.

    No recipe.
    That would be a bug. The badges you can only earn once, there is no limit to the number of times you can select the other rewards.

    No, those are special stealths if I recall correctly--not actual "costume powers" in the sense of the ToT mechanic.
  3. The new event overview page on the main site is very well done. I was quite surprised. Well played!

    I would've, if I'd known that. No kidding? Go go stealth patch notes again!
  5. The tip system has never been exclusive to GR, and has always been a part of I18.
  6. As discussed in the other thread about this: nothing special or fancy. We have indeed reached the zen area of vet rewards: not awesome, not sucky, just...there.

    Can't argue with those debate skills!

    The new content is the Halloween tip mission you discovered. There is a badge for each ending you choose, and a small accolade (no power) for getting all the badges.
  8. Yes, in the patch notes and discussion.
  9. Don't worry, I can still bring the stupid: I thought that every two hours you'd have another five charges ready. Not that after five uses across ten-plus hours you'd permanently exhaust the reward.

    Nert.
  10. Personally, I like the whole "Just because you kept your account active for six years doesn't mean you deserve rewards for keeping your account active for six years" rhetoric.

    My sources say no.

  12. Oh I like it a lot.

    I don't get to play much, and when I do I tend to blow through patrol XP pretty fast. Now I can extend that blue sweetness a bit longer.

    Also, I knew I could count on you, Turg!
  13. $10 is more than I expected. Not enough to make me walk away, but enough for me to sit on my hands for a while. Shucks. :/

    Also their buffs do not stack on players. A Vet buff pet only provides its buffs to its owner, not anyone else. IIRC there was a time (while they were still involved in one of the beta tests) that they may have provided their buffs to other players (like mini-Leadership powers) but that never really made it to the live builds.
    Not only were they originally designed to buff multiple players, they were originally MARKETED as such as well. The mechanics and description were changed by the time they went live, and a redname advised about the change.

    4. Need sense of humor.

    ... apparently you get more flies with honey. I'm just saying.

    EDIT: They may be a dead SG. I may be trumpeting success over someone who didn't show up to the fight. Alas.
    I have 20 outstanding sales that I am waiting on, and ten ready to post. In a financial holding pattern at the moment...
  20. I have emotional investment in the older original characters, not these new ones.

    Do I really need Eddie looking at me in my office?
  21. I feel pretty spiffy to have played/teamed/RPd with almost every single name listed in this thread. Yay!
  22. That is a large signature.
